Dr.Minky Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 (edited) I was getting the AMD Phenom X4 965 3.4GHz 8MB, but how much better is the AMD Phenom X6 1090t 9MB? Is it worth the extra £30? Would the performance boost be really that noticable? This would mean me using the poorer standard CPU cooler that comes with the 1090t too,From what I've seen it's not really much better in terms of gaming, but I don't want to just go on my instincts..

CyriusG Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Don't buy anything from AMD this close to the release of Bulldozer. Quote Link to comment
Dr.Minky Posted September 3, 2011 Author Share Posted September 3, 2011 (edited) In a £130 price bracket? I doubt it! Anyway I don't need a computer that powerful, if I need to upgrade to that in a couple years then I can (and it'd be cheaper)Or do you mean the prices will drop because of it?

TechnoNegro Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 The prices will drop, dont buy shit before it. Quote Link to comment
Dr.Minky Posted September 3, 2011 Author Share Posted September 3, 2011 Ahh, okay then.. Whens the release date? Since the prices are dropping, do you know a better performance AMD instead that would drop to the same price or is the one im getting fine? Quote Link to comment
CarPileUp Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 (edited) Like CyriusG said, don't buy an AMD CPU now. Just wait till Bulldozer (like me ) Release date is october. Edited September 3, 2011 by CarPileUp Quote Link to comment
bAsTiNaToR Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 (edited) Unless your games & programes don't make use of 6 cores, your computing performance will slightly decrease with the 1090T. 965BE = 3,4 GHz, 1090T = 3,2 GHzAlso, I've heard / read some rumors which say that the desktop versions of BD will be delayed again. (I've no official proofs, so you shouldn't take this too serious)The prices will drop, but I'd rather buy the new generation. For instance, an i3-2100 is on the same height as a 965BE and the prices are almost the same. (But DO NOT BUY an AMD CPU NOW) Edited September 3, 2011 by bAsTiNaToR Quote Link to comment

Damien Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 I got a 1075t myself and its a greap cpu for gaming. I share the opinion to wait for bulldozer, because prices will drop. Quote Link to comment

Dr.Minky Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 AMD is better value for money, so are most of the parts that come with it. Better than Intel for its price range imo, Quote Link to comment
Cookie Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 AMD is better value for money, so are most of the parts that come with it. Better than Intel for its price range imo,AMD might be better until a certain price range. Like 150 euros. Quote Link to comment
